You can find many free brush presets for Adobe Photoshop on the Internet. You can download brushes with ready for use forms - hair presets, animal figures, flowers, patterns. So you won't need to draw much yourself. Besides, using different brushes is fun.
Put the brush presets you have downloaded into the folder PhotoshopPresetsBrushes in the Adobe folder in Program Files if you use Windows or in Applications if you use Mac.
The original brush presets that come with Adobe Photoshop are kept in this folder. The brush presets should have an .abr ending.
Even though you save the Brushes in the Photoshop's folder they will not always emerge in its workspace automatically. You'll have to load them.
Do as follows:
Step 1. Open a photo in Adobe Photoshop. Activate the Brush tool and you will see the settings for the Brush in the Options palette.
Step 2. Press the triangle on the right of the word Brush and the Brush palette will open.
In the Brush palette click the triangle in the right upper corner and you will see a fall-out menu where you should select the item Load Brushes.
Step 3. You will see the Load Brushes dialog box. Choose the brush preset you want from the list. For example, Calligraphic Brushes.

When you press the name of the Brush preset in the fall-out menu, the new brush presets load into the Brush palette replacing the existing ones.
To come back to the custom brush presets go to the fall-out menu again and select the command Reset Brushes.
Preset actions are the actions created by the folks at Adobe that come with Photoshop Creative Suite 6. You may need to load an action into the panel so that it’s ready to use. Then, you can apply all steps in that action in one fell swoop by playing the action. How to load preset actions
Photoshop’s preset actions are located in a series of files in the Actions folder. The default actions load by default when you first open Photoshop. However, you can open and use other preset actions.
They include Frames, Text Effects, and Image Effects, among others. Using LAB-Black and White Technique is a nice way to convert a color image into grayscale. The Oil Pastel action is a nice way to make images look more painterly.
Follow these steps to load preset actions:
*
In the Actions panel, click the panel pop-up menu arrow and select Load Actions.
In the Open dialog box, Photoshop opens the Actions folder in the Presets folder. This folder contains several sets of actions presets. If the folder is empty, navigate toC:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS6PresetsActions. (On the Mac, go to ApplicationsAdobe Photoshop CS6PresetsActionsMacintosh HDApplicationsAdobe Photoshop CS6PresetsActions.)
*
Select one of the actions sets.
*
Click the Open button.
Easier, Photoshop’s additional actions presets also appear at the bottom of the Actions panel pop-up menu. You can add any of them to your current list of actions by selecting the set’s name.
The new actions presets appear in the Actions panel below the default actions. You can show or hide the actions by clicking the expand/collapse arrow in the third column.
You can also make actions available — or unavailable — for an entire set by clicking the first column in the Actions panel to the left of the actions set’s folder icon.
Here are some other tidbits about loading and working with preset actions:
*
Any actions sets that you create appear in the pop-up menu if you save them in the Photoshop Actions folder. If you save them somewhere other than the Actions folder, you can navigate to that folder by using the usual file navigation commands.
*
To remove the existing actions and replace them with the set you’re loading, select Replace Actions from the panel pop-up menu.
*
To reset the Actions panel to the Default Actions set (removing all other sets that you may have loaded), select Reset Actions from the panel pop-up menu.
*
To clear all actions from the Actions panel, select Clear All Actions from the panel pop-up menu. (You might want to do this if you’re creating your own set of actions from scratch.)
*
To rename an actions set, select it and then select Set Options from the panel pop-up menu.
